For 16 years Sérgio Sanchez, Beto Neves and Beto Placco have been keeping alive
the memory of the band that influenced music and behaviour worldwide.

For three decades they were happy collecting albums, photos and anything with
"The Beatles" brand on it. Occasionally, they would play the music that consecrated their idols
for close friends. But their first public show would give them a real taste of the
success of the Liverpool boys.

In April of 1993, "The Beatles Again" walked on to the stage of the "Araraquarense Club" for the
first time. It was the start of a long history of success and a string of many followers.
From the first line-up there are still two members: advertising executive Sérgio
Sanchez (electric guitar, guitar, vocals) and
medical doctor Beto Neves (keyboards, guitar, harmonica, vocals).
Bass player Fábio Russi joined
the band just a few months after. One year later José Abi left and insurance broker
Beto Placco brought his drums and vocal talents to replace him. In February of 2006
Fábio Russi left and Daniel Mattos took his place as a bass player and singer
to complete the line-up that is "The Beatles Again" today.

"We all had day jobs and other obligations than music, but we were all
musicians that loved the Beatles,
their musicality and the good songs that had influence over many generations", says
Sérgio Sanchez.

Besides the good initial response from the public, the members believe that the band became
better known after their participation in the Beatles Festival 2001 in the city of Ribeirão
Preto. The group was rated as one of the three best Beatles bands in Brazil. "It
was like we were a football team and the hole city was following and cheering for us. The city press
also provided excellent coverage of the event and we have had more opportunities to perform
since then", says Beto Neves.
After this event the band also grew in structure, with the inclusion of new instruments,
more elaborate shows and even improvements in the visual production were made, with the addition
of a few classic Beatles costumes.

"We admire all the Beatles and we believe that each one of them had a part on
the band success. Even Ringo Starr, who was the less musically gifted, was very
important for the unity
of the band, for lightening up internal tension", says Beto Placco.

"The Beatles way of life had an influence on the whole world, even with the
youngsters. Even though it was announced six months before it actually happened, the break-up of
the band left so many people completely disillusioned. The separation generated a true
commotion. They finished the band at the right time, but even Paul could not acquire the
same success alone", says Beto Neves, the more fanatic member of the bunch, whose interest
has taken him to Liverpool to experience "the sacred temple of the world's pop rock".
